Great tour, knowledgeable guide, comfortable coach. Klettur hotel average. Tiny room, no cafe/restaurant. Stracta hotel great. Only negative, sold as a 5 day tour. Not 5 day tour, a 3 day tour. Guide even said, welcome to the 3 day tour. Need to be more clear when selling this tour. Otherwise great.
